I think it's 2 or 3 yrs he's unable to coach.

He is able to coach, but the school that is wanting to hire him has to go before the NCAA because of his show cause and be willing to take on a share of Ohio St.'s sanctions and penalties.

from wiki:
quote:

It (the NCAA) also imposed a five-year show-cause penalty on Tressel, which means any NCAA member that wants to hire him would have to "show cause" for why it shouldn't be sanctioned for hiring him, and could face severe penalties if he commits any further violations during that time. The order stands until December 19, 2016; given past precedent, it will likely have the effect of blackballing Tressel from the coaching ranks until the 2017 season. If Tressel ever coaches again during this period, he will be suspended for the first five games of the regular season, plus any conference championship game or bowl game.
